Question

A 40 cm wire having a mass of  3.2 g  is stretched between two fixed supports 40.05 cm apart. In its fundamental mode, the wire vibrates at 220 Hz.   If the area of cross-section of the wire is 1.0mm2 , then young’s modulus of the wire is ____×1011N/m2

Moderate
Solution

Given  : L=40c.m , m=3.2g , ΔL=40.0540=0.05c.m , f1=220Hz , A=1mm2   Young's Modulud : Y = TALL T=AYΔLL=AY0.0540=AY800 T=AY800=106×Y800 Linear Mass Density : μ=m/L=3.2×10340×102=8×103kg/m  Fundamental Frequency : f1=12LTμ 220=12×0.4106×Y800×8×103 176=Y6.4×106 Y=6.4×1762×106=1.98×1011N/m2
